can take another day of this
B
Working overtime to
F#
save up for tomorrow

keep ringing out so hollow
B
Now they're taking all

and I've spent-

You're just a number
when you're working
F#
for the company
B
So play along while
they rave about the stock

price And pretty soon
you'll be buying into their
E B
lies Conformity is now
F#
rewarded with the guarantee
That I'll spend-
(Repeat Refrain)
